“Although the FDA says that genetically modified ingredients in food are safe, some still believe they may be harmful. NBC diet and nutrition editor Madelyn Fernstrom reveals how to tell whether there are genetically modified organisms in what you’re eating,” the video’s description reads.

While subtle attempts to paint genetically modified foods as completely safe are present in the video’s opening, the report’s main focus centers on the push for GMO labeling as well as recent moves by the food industry to satisfy non-GMO consumers.

Specifically, General Mills, a group heavily opposed to food transparency, publicly announced the non-GMO status of original Cheerios cereal earlier this month. Given the fact that there are no commercially-produced genetically modified oats to begin with, the move has been seen by many as a clear attempt to gain public support.

The report goes on to mention items with USDA organic and Non-GMO Project certification, two industries receiving massive growth with each passing year. In fact, reports of organic food shortages have begun appearing across the country as supply struggles to meet demand.

“So there is a growing push it seems, customers asking for greater transparencies from companies,” a host comments. “What is the response? Are we starting to see companies do that now?”

An even more shocking mainstream report on GMO foods was aired last November on “A Healthy You & Carol Alt,” a new half-hour Fox News show covering health and wellness. The program detailed several studies linking GMO consumption to major health issues as well as the nation’s 93 percent labeling approval rating, issues rarely touched upon by major media outlets.

Coming from a news industry that once fired two journalists for attempting to report on studies linking Monsanto’s rBGH-containing milk to cancer, the reports reveal the media’s desperate attempts to remain relevant as a record number of Americans switch to alternative news sources.

In the face of yet more scientific evidence of the adverse health effects of genetically modified foods, country after country is working to ban, limit or restrict the cultivation and testing of GM crops. But as the biotech giants gear up the PR war against their opponents, the question of what people can do to avoid GMO foods is becoming more important than ever.

We either have a government that respects property rights or we don't (yeah, I know the answer). That's all this is about. Pollen from these plants does not stay put and thus violates the rights of other property owners. People have a right to demand information from the businesses that sell them products and to not be defrauded. They can also boycott and should until truthful answers are given. We clearly have a government that is bought and paid for by big business and have had such for a long time (one need only compare the Constitution to the Articles of Confederation to see how far back it goes). Consumers will have to stand up for their rights if they expect to still have any in the future.

Subtle?! The NBC nutritionist declares, “… the new [GMO] plant has POSITIVE qualities,” and rattles off an unchallenged list of Monsanto’s favorite talking points about purported GMO attributes, then adds that the FDA (run by Monsanto appointees, by the way) says GMOs are safe. That’s about as SUBTLE as a sledge hammer through the brain, Mr. Thalen! It left me wondering if Monsanto didn’t pay for the segment to try to deflect growing consumer unrest about their genetically-adulterated foods…or perhaps even exercised some power as a sponsor to tell NBC, “If you run that segment, here’s what you’ll say first!”

The only thing subtle about the report, Mr. Thalen, was a sly attempt by the corporate media to present a list of one-sided industry propaganda as apparent “facts” about GMOs.

And that doesn't stop the fact that they won't buy chicken treated with antibiotics, due to private market concerns without government interventions.

And it doesn't prove that when informed we can't do the same to other companies.
And for you to decide where to eat based on sexual orientation means you're more a bigot than the people you act against.

Ditto. My wife and I do these things not specifically because of GMO or labeling issues but because the food tastes so much better. In my area community pea patches are gaining in popularity. We participate in one near a lot of Section 8 housing with a large immigrant population. It's been surprising how few of the residents want to take advantage of this very low cost opportunity to grow healthy food. Those that do, however, bring a very different set of cultivation techniques.

Poor Roger, nobody wants to talk to you.
You created a double profile so you can just talk to yourself.
Your comments disappear faster and faster.
What is the state of your mind? Desperate? Confused? What's next? I see the white coats coming to get you and put you into an asylum.
Go to rehab before it is too late.

It goes further and beyond that. No sane person would do that. At one time, in his warped mind, he thought he was something, or someone. He thought he was respected. he thought people wanted to hear what he had to say.

Then the truth came out. People weren't laughing with him, they were laughing at him. The last straw was when Ezra and Mandy at Breitbart blew him off. It drove him to the abyss. I sure hope he doesn't hurt himself, or someone else.

Maybe he'll shoot his computer.

He has been reduced to picking on an old man at Conservative Victory.

Zebrano, long time no hear. Were you trying to use those solar panels after dark again?

Serf and everyone keeps asking about you on the growl…. It seems you are alive and well. Even at your age.
